196 cm here, I wish I was smaller. I don’t fit in airplanes, flying is horrible and I have to do it too much. There are a lot of cars I don’t fit in. On bed, my feet tend to stick out from the back of the blankets.

One wonders who would have the time, interest and money to setup and control AI to do all this… One wonders 🤔 and the one remembers -just as a random example- Microsoft funding SCO with tens of millions of dollars right after which it attacked Linux with fake copyright claims for years, after which Microsoft extorted large corporations into switching to Microsoft platforms. Also, why controls GitHub now? Anyway, I digress.
OS will deal with this, I imagine it won’t be too hard to setup tools that will deal with this shit, but I’m so sick and tired of continuously having to deal with this shit. Can we just formonce have something nice?
Guess I’ll have to follow suit, because I’d love to switch to graphene OS
I see you haven’t had to use printers a lot. Printer design has reached a point where you’re just wondering if Satan uses them as tools to torment people on earth.
Having said that, yeah, you’re right. There are way bigger fish to fry
Nope. That sounds like even more money with a lot of extra work and time that I don’t have. I need very soft keyboard keys or I get very painful RSI attacks. Used Logitech K800, but with those discontinued, I’m now using MK540
I’m a high speed developer, I write a LOT. All keyboards are still in working order after 6 -12 months, but the key storked become “hard” and they start damaging my fingers. I typically have to give my keyboard to someone that writes slower, and inget a new one that is “soft”
Welcome to the dark side! We got cookies
Mind you though, it’s not a requirement
Of course the US is not 100 capitalistic not was the USSR 100% communist.
Having said that, to clarify, the US is WAY too much capitalistic and needs to tone it down vastly. The rich upperclass is not happy about that idea, of course
Russia wasn’t 100% communistic, and never could be because real communism will beber work as the vast majority of the population won’t want it. There is a reason why the purges from when communism started there ended with so many murders. Get rid of those that oppose communism, then get rid of those that oppose all those murders too. Anyone wanting “real” Communism really should watch “the chekist” as a good example of what is to come.
Like it or not, capitalism is by far the most successful system of driving humanity forward. However, you need to control it, you need a lot of strict laws in place to keep it from spinning out of control. Use a controlled capitalist system to fund and support a strong socialist network on top of that and you’ll end up with great countries
I feel printer company CEO’s should avoid Manhattan…
It’s a company, they need to make a profit. that’s fair enough when you sell an actual service or good, but in this care you just rent out a platform for people to talk from, financed by shareholders.
Renting out a speech platform for money from shareholders and being open and fair are not compatible with eachother. Even if she is genuine, she will have to respond to shareholders, she will need to make as much money as possible.
Shareholders are almost never a good thing, but for internet platforms, they’re the worst
Gotta love how you talk about me being unscholarly, yet you literally pretend you can predict the future exactly
I thought so too and I mostly liked it. However, now I just remember the music being really weirdly intrusive
Nah, the university will just say they’ll investigate something something, do nothing really, and a year or two from now, when most have forgotten, proclaim nobody did anything wrong, and that will be it.
Raise my own private army
take over governments, be a benevolent dictator who forces people to lean that dictatorships are bad, that forces everyone to go to school (free education) and get a good minimum amount of basic knowledge
put a strictly controlled capitalist system in place that can make lots of money that will go to a socialist system that makes sure everyone can be happy.
force free healthcare (mental, dental, eye, all of it), free basic housing, decriminalize all drug, but school everyone in responsible recreational drug use and setup treatment centers for those that fall off the wagon.
Restrict free speech to the point where it makes sense. Everyone can talk whatever they want but if you have even a small following you better stop talking non scientific non democratic bullshit or I’ll jail your ass
Put in a boat load of restrictions in politics. All money must be visible, period. Politicians cannot own companies, they ca not own shares. Politicians will not be allowed to make decisions that step into things that are good for them personally. Remove political parties, all politicians should be independent, no more party politics. Voting would be per post. All politicians can register themselves for a post, show why they could do it best, and then we vote for the posts. Voting would be a Nation holiday and voting would be obligatory for at least 50% of all available posts
Get rid of churches and imaginary bullshit. Humanity has entered the era where it needs to grow up and stop believing in fairytales. If this means that we won’t get good horror movies anymore then I can veryuch live with that.
On capitalism: put a hard limit on howuch someone can own and owe. Debts would be limited to just a few thousand dollars per person. You can’t ownore than 10 million, anything beyond that will go to 100% taxes automatically. This will vaporize the gap between rich and poor.
Nonmoree private planes, mega yachts, etc. if you want to have a house & boat, as long as it’s under 10 million, go nuts!
Free minimum housing, make basic food items free, education free, healthcare free.
Switch to a 4/3 work week
Companies will he taken out of politics, they are not a person, they don’t have free speech, they won’t have speech. Company sizes will be limited to 5000-10000 employees, that’s it. Beyond that, it will be split up automatically. Companies will have to work together on bigger and mega projects
Justice systems would be reformed, now focussing on keeping the innocent out, instead of the guilty in. Focus would be 95% on rehabilitation, education, self improvement, the rest on the punishment part.
Break up and where possible, remove banks, and make them as small as possible
Put extreme restrictions in what can be speculated on, and invested in. You can’t buy debts, you can’t bet on companies failing, you can just invest to try and help a company a little and get a bit of a reward for that.
Ban all discrimination under heavy penalty. Live and let live.
Guns and weapons would be available under very heavy restrictions for sports, hobby, etc.
Marketing would be severely restricted. Companies can’t lie anymore, period. Commercials would be severely restricted. Nothing towards or for kids, products can just look what they are.
On the environment: a huge push will be made to transform car dependent cities to human dependent cities. Roads will be changed to parks. Cars will be allowed but cities will be humans first and it’ll be easier to get around with public transportation or bike or walking than by car. This will immensely change everything. Humans will be healthier, everything will be quieter and more beautiful. Architecture will change as giant depressing car parkings will change into beautiful parks. People still can have a car if they need to but most won’t want to (see the Netherlands for the past 4 decades, and France where they recently started this too)
Once it’s all rolling smoothly, I will then step down, and start the elections, and I’ll move on to the next country to invade and take over to deploy my evil plans. Heeeeehehehehheheeh.
Then migrate to Linux and see if there are devs working on open source drivers
The Logitech K800 keyboard. I swear by them, had 5 of them over the course of like more then a decade.
Super soft illuminated keys, super nice to work with, I have the last one here on my desk and I can’t find new ones anymore.
They were quite pricey, around 80-100 dollars, but man it was nice while it lasted
The series about the US being nuked? It was okay-ish, but I just remember the background music being super annoying
Zero isn’t very slim, it’s just nothing
It’s brought up, you can ask. They can reply with “I’d like to keep that private” and all is fine
